Oh my gosh donut shops! How do they all stay in business
Right? It starts with how good the donuts taste right but then comes the coffee and the relationships – how friendly are the owners? Is it a place you want to keep returning to? Is it a great location? Does it have X?
Soooo true!! People are super loyal too! They all swear their favorite shop has THE BEST donuts! But it’s probably a lot more about those other things.
Relationships!
Micki, they stay in business because DONUTS. 😂😂 #kidding

Currently struggling with doing allllllll of the things in my business!
Micki! SAME. Nicole would kick my butt, but I’m pretty much a one-man show right now.
CheckwithEd!
Just getting everything done in an orderly way. Organization. In the infancy stage of a product based business. Making sure I’m setting it up right.
Love that you brought this up as it’s a huge one!
ThankU so much for your suggestions! Huge help!!! Loosened some of the heaviness that this struggle brings!
Yasss!! This group of #EdTalkTV viewers lightens my load every day! 💚💚💚

I’ve done FB ads that go to thousands but got not one random view of my content from them. The growth of audience has all been organic, unpaid.
Well to clarify, random people view, but only known or referred people engage and become clients…so far.
Late but here.

Hey Tammy! 👋🏽
You need to determine what your time is worth first…that makes it easier to see how much time paying someone else will save you.
Your TIME isn’t FREE
Sometimes you can’t afford NOT to outsource. Because you may hit a wall and just not get it done.
I do want to hire a V.A. But for very specific tasks. Not all things.
☝🏼 that might friends is the right answer for anyone looking into hiring someone – “Not all things.”

I’m like that. “I can do alllll the things!” 😬

Investing in other local side gigers or business owners! 💚
Yup! We have so many talented people around us that they just need someone to ask.

To be honest, at THIS particular stage of my business, it’s daily chores that need to be outsourced … laundry, ironing, cleaning etc … The stuff that can distract me from day-to-day business ….
I love that you brought that up because I think this is a big one for most of us and is not discussed often. We think it’s the business tasks (which it certainly can be) when sometimes it’s really just our everyday tasks.
Some daily life things might be easier and less expensive to outsource too.
BOOKKEEPING! Girl, bye! First thing to go! 😂

To know the lingo
Erica…I hear you…would love to outsource the chores.
And I’m curious (and this is for anyone reading this) is there anyone in or around the house that might be worth asking and paying a little – sandwiches, rides, money, you know, whatever works 😉 ?
Ed, haha!!! Nope. Just me and the hubs in this household. 🤣🤣 I outsource SOME dry cleaning, but MAN it’s super expensive in SF.

Ed Troxell Creative Sandwiches tho! I cannot! But for real, if y’all know anyone, I make a mean tuna on rye!
Ed, nice! YES! I can’t get over paying $6-8 to dry clean ONE PAIR of pants, when I can wash 20+ pairs for $8 and iron at home.
Dress shirts, however, are what I send away to be laundered and pressed. I suck at ironing dress shirts.
Well, I suck at ironing pants, too, but it’s a trade-off.
Erica Rodriguez Maier I don’t iron much but for the rare items that need it, I’m all about that steamer life. Best thing ever!
Ed, yes! Seen those. I DO need to try one eventually … then again, eventually … um, I’ll outsource it all, sooo.

Erica Rodriguez Maier I bet! Once in NYC I found a laundromat that washed and folded my clothes for $10 bucks #Winning
Best freaking deal!
No..I think that is the problem. I keep saying we should adopt a six-year old that we could train. LOL I’m just kidding…no seriously. KIDDING PEOPLE.
Micki Webb, Special Education Consultant You are probably right…lol

Ed, I use the steamer function on my iron all the time. But it only does so well. That “perfect crease” it does not make. Lol
Erica Rodriguez Maier oh no, no iron at all. You need a steamer https://kit.com/CheckwithEd/office-gear/joy-mangano-900-watt
Best thing ever and you can travel with it!
Ed, yes! Seen those. I DO need to try one eventually … then again, eventually … um, I’ll outsource it all, sooo. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Erica Rodriguez Maier lol
Right, Erica! Need housekeeping help!
You manage us very well Ed! 💚
You manage us very well Ed!
Oh gosh, I just had flashbacks to the movie “Dude, Where’s My Car?” “Annndddd theeeen.” I used to work with an all-male team — they loved that movie. lol
Ed Troxell Creative OMG, the guys I worked with would always say, “NO AND THEN!!” 🤣🤣🤣 Dying

Yep! Haven’t made coffee at home in years!
For me, I am not a big coffee drinker but I will say the older you get the more I feel like you become one 😂 I can never get it to taste right at home. Mind you I drink black coffee so it’s nothing special but I think it’s the atmosphere and the damn to-go cup – serious though!

The cup tho! So true! I drink it black too. But when I arrive at work with an unfamiliar cup people practically try to do an intervention! “Where did you get THAT coffee?!”
Micki Webb, Special Education Consultant lol right? It’s that dang cup!

Just set my coffee pot for the morning! It’s brewing by 8am!
Love it! Now was that just because of tonight’s show? Or did you already plan that prior lol
Great idea Paula! Er’body synchronize coffee pots for #EdintheMorning!
Micki Webb, Special Education Consultant 😆 I love it!
We are not only an evening show but we are also an international show and now soon to be morning show 😂 This is freaking awesome!

Get outta bed for #CoffeewithEd!
I draw the line to support #AllThingsEd if it involves a morning hour. #kidding #sorta
Ed, I set it every night because I gotta have it first thing in the morning and it helps me stay on time!

My husband and I like to make evening coffee runs … it’s for the experience!
Yup! Totally get that! Love that you guys have that as an outing as that makes it fun! 🙂
Some research has suggested we go to the coffee shop because it’s an affordable way to feel affluent. It’s the middle class splurge.
Awww Erica, coffee date nights! 💚

I’ve just done my 2nd live on my page and it felt so much better than the first time I did it. It’s not so bad when you are comfortable talking about your products
research – ask others
I always have an afterparty now, thanks to you Ed and reply to all the comments
chuck the tech out the window lol
I haven’t watched Micki’s yet – it’s on my list to do.
Thanks Ed x
